Pick of the Litter: Scooby
MANKATO, Minn. (KEYC) - This week’s pick of the litter is Scooby! He’s a tan medium sized terrier pit bull, who’s about 2 and a half years old. Scooby was brought to BENCHS as a emaciated stray, and was severely underweight. After weeks of proper food and medical care, along with some love and patience, this staff favorite is ready for his forever family. He’s recovered physically, and is becoming comfortable in his new environment. Scooby is not so much into toys but he’s very food motivated and loves to follow his nose to seek things out.
